Bobbie Ann Mason Lyrics - Looking For The Light - Rick Trevino

It wasn't the books that I didn't read 

It wasn't the teachers that tried to teach me 

It wasn't that varsity baseball coach 

Kept on tellin' them locker room jokes 

It was Bobby Ann Mason, back in high school 

She was way too cute, she was way too cool 

How was I gonna get an education 

Sittin' right back of Bobby Ann Mason 

Well, Bobby knew her hist'ry, Bobby knew her French 

Bobby knew how to keep the boys in suspense 

She'd tease with a touch, she'd tease with a kiss 

I was three long years being teased by, pretty Miss 

Bobby Ann Mason, back in high school 

She was way too cute, she was way too cool 

How was I gonna get an education 

Sittin' right back of Bobby Ann Mason 

Well, Bobby graduated first in her class 

Me, I graduated closer to last 

Bobby went to college, she got a degree 

I got a guitar so I could sing about 

Me and Bobby Ann Mason, back in high school 

She was way too cute, she was way too cool 

How was I gonna get an education 

Sittin' right back of Bobby Ann Mason 

Well, the years have taught me, the basics of math 

Divorce divides and time subtracts 

Takes away your hair, takes away your jump shot 

But it ain't gonna take all the memories I got of 

Bobby Ann Mason, back in high school 

She was way too cute, she was way too cool 

How was I gonna get an education 

Sittin' right back of 

Bobby Ann Mason, back in high school 

She was way too cute, she was way too cool 

And I got most of my education 

Sittin' right back of Bobby Ann Mason 

Sittin' right back of Bobby Ann Mason
